HAVING IT ALL

What does “having it all” mean to you? Is it attainable?

I vaguely remember answering a similar question months ago.  Having it all to me means having enough. I certainly have enough in my life. I may not be financially well off, but I am wealthy in terms of good relationships and friendships in my life.  I am very grateful 🙏🏽 for the quality of friendships in my life and have learned to live within my means financially and gradually save up for the luxuries that make like rewarding.   To me people who focus on having it all tend to be greedy and unfulfilled.   They are never happy, constantly seeking instant gratification,  and never learning the pleasure of saving for something, the pleasure of delayed gratification. There is vast pleasure in saving for some,  putting away a bit towards your goal on a regular basis. The pleasure one receives in attaing their goal is wonderful and far outweighs the short lived instant gratification.

Wealth isn’t only measured in terms of finances. People can be limited financially but still have wonderful fulfilling lives because they are gracious and grateful 🙏🏽 for what life has provided them with.

Is it possible to have it all. I think that is based in terms of what having it all means to the individual. I may not technically have it all, but I certainly have enough to sustain me and am achieving my goals for my future.

  3. Dear Kaye,

    Thank you for sharing your thoughtful perspective. Your emphasis on gratitude and the value of relationships over material wealth is both inspiring and refreshing. It’s true that wealth isn’t solely measured by finances but also by the richness of our relationships and the fulfillment we find in life’s simple pleasures.

    Your approach to saving and the joy of delayed gratification is a powerful reminder of the importance of patience and appreciating the journey towards our goals. It’s heartening to see someone so grounded and content with what they have, finding true wealth in the quality of their friendships and the experiences they cherish.

    Your words resonate deeply, reminding us all that “having it all” is indeed subjective and that true contentment comes from within. Thank you for sharing such a profound and inspiring outlook. 🙏🏽❤️
